The Ishtar Gate was the 8th gate to enter the inner city of Babylon. Dedicated to the Babylonian Goddess Ishtar, it is part of one of the original Seven Wonders of the World. Babylon was a kingdom that lasted from the 18th to the 6th century BC and was located in the ancient Mesopotamia, today’s Iraq.
